Abstract

The supercritical water–pyrite interface has been studied by ab initio molecular dynamics simulation. Extreme conditions are relevant in the iron–sulfur world (ISW) theory where prebiotic chemical reactions are postulated to occur at the mineral–water interface. We have investigated the properties of this interface under such conditions. We have come to the conclusion that hot-pressurized water on pyrite leads to an interface where a dry pyrite surface is in contact with the nearby SC water without significant chemical interactions. This picture is markedly different from that under ambient conditions where the surface is fully covered with adsorbed water molecules which is of relevance for the surface reactions of the ISW hypothesis.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
